Description
Panax ginseng is the extract powder of this listing: a Korean 10:1 extract powder, as the product title states. The original page gives the plant its other names — Asian ginseng, Chinese ginseng, or Korean ginseng — and records that it has been valued in traditional Chinese herbal practices for thousands of years, its roots celebrated for their botanical and historical significance in herbal preparations. The educational reference for the species is Panax ginseng.
The root behind the extract
The page describes the root the extract is drawn from: a fusiform or cylindrical root, 1–20 cm in length and 1–3 cm in diameter, its exterior colour ranging from greyish-yellow to amber-yellow. The upper part shows sparse, shallow, interrupted transverse striations with distinct longitudinal wrinkles; the lower part has 1–5 branching lateral roots and numerous slender rootlets; and the hard-textured rhizomes taste initially slightly sweet, with a mild bitter note — all as the page records it.
Preparing panax ginseng as the page directs
The page’s preparation is a decoction: add 1 teaspoon of dried ginseng root to 1 cup of water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10–15 minutes; strain and enjoy the herbal infusion. Its optional additions are honey, natural fruit juice, stevia leaf powder, or licorice root powder, and its own note frames the product as intended for traditional herbal and culinary use — recorded here as the page states it.
Choosing a size
Store the powder sealed in a cool, dry place, away from moisture, so it stays dry and free-flowing between uses. Choose from 1 oz, 2 oz, 4 oz, 6 oz and 8 oz sizes. The smaller sizes suit a first purchase; the larger sizes suit regular use and bulk keeping. Plainly stated: Korean panax ginseng extract powder at a 10:1 ratio, in five sizes.
